If anyone knows how to make this work, I'd love to know.
It seems that JDK7 will support X11 bitmapped fonts (PCF format). That means
that, in theory, I can use PyCharm with Schumacher Clean (the worlds most
awesome bitmap font, which i use both for console and editor).
However, I have not been able to get this to work, despite:
- Download and build the JDK7 beta.
- Downloaded the early-access version of PyCharm (the standard version
refuses to run on JDK7)
- Remove all fontconfig files from the j2sdk image, except for one,
which includes:
awtfontpath.latin-1=/usr/share/fonts/misc
Despite all that, Schumacher is not listed by PyCharm in the available fonts.
